What an awesome find by Ron Shukis at Brimfield. Would have loved to have been there! It inspired me to post one of my similar finds here. It seems to be a bit bigger then the one Ron found. Still both are very collectible. This sign design came in many different sizes. This one is 18 x 18.
Thank you for looking my friends. Have an awesome one! : )
